(oh, baby)Dreams are closer than the skinYou wearLove gleaming eyes and hairEver close, but, oh, so far awayJust as soon as you think thatYou're thereSketches drawn right out ofFairy talesJar of happiness for saleSlumber dreams are mere realityAll the best things I think youAre to me

Refrain:If you can't be in love (baby)Then just be what you areDreams are not far awayIf you can't be in love (baby)Then just be what you areDreams are not far...

Kiss the truth away and thenYou sighOver love you think is justA house of joyHow can you find your joy withNo home

If you can't be in love (baby)Then just be what you areDreams are not far away
